Transcript of Photonics
Applications of Photonics
Introduction The science of photonics includes the
generation, emission, transmission, modulation, signal processing, switching, amplification, and detection/sensing of light. The term photonics thereby emphasizes that photons are neither particles nor waves they have both particle and wave nature.
Applications Applications of photonics are
ubiquitous. Included are all areas from everyday life to the most advanced science, e.g. light detection, telecommunications, information processing, lighting, metrology, spectroscopy, holography, medicine, military technology, laser material processing, visual art, biophotonics, agriculture, and robotics.
Overview of Photonics
The science of photonics includes investigation of the emission, transmission, amplification, detection, and modulation of light.
